Nikki’s Picks: Gift Guide Edition

If you are unsure what to gift (or ask for!) this season, consulting someone whose style you love for recommendations is always helpful. I did us all a favor and asked Nikki Kule—one of those go-to people—what she’d give the people in her life and what she’d love to receive herself. You can thank me later. 🎁

What Nikki would gift:

KULE will be where I get most of my gifts, and I put together an assortment of KULE items for you to shop. From my favorite super-soft sweater in a range of pretty colors, fun (and useful) accessories, and stocking stuffers to make your loved ones smile 🙂.

For a friend (who I have probably talked into adoring Italy): a subscription to Italy Segreta. It’s a monthly magazine with beautiful photography and excellent recommendations. She deserves la dolce vita!

For a sister: A Rummy Tile set. Nikki grew up playing this game with her family, and your sisterly competitiveness never leaves you.

For a colleague: Loewe “pot” candles will be pretty to light but will also be a great little vessel once the candle gets used up.

For a best friend: This cashmere triangle scarf from The Row is luxuriously soft and a cool styling item for her to wear with her winter coat year after year.

For a daughter: If she’s naughty, get her classes at Barry’s Boot Camp 🤣, and if she’s nice, this beautiful Savette bag, which is apparently what the cool girls are wearing. I know my daughter is eyeing it.

What Nikki would like to receive:

Frederic Malle perfumes. I love the packaging of these pretty perfumes and switching between the beautiful scents. They’re also perfect for travel.

Ted Muehling egg vase: I bought this for my best friends last year, but now I want one for myself. You know it’s a good gift when that happens! I would take any and all colors, but specifically the Robin’s Egg and the Celadon Glaze. So pretty.

I love collecting art and am often drawn to work done by female artists. Tappan is a wonderful place to purchase art, with a great selection of artists and artworks.  

These Loeffler Randall red velvet Mary Janes. They are good for dressing up or down, even into the springtime. They’re currently on pre-order, so make a little IOU. I’ll wait [red heart].

I’m not a jewelry person, but this Elsa Peretti ring is wearable for any occasion. I hope my husband is reading this! The last time I recommended things for a gift guide, he referenced it! It was indeed a win for me 😉.
